Great experience going to Mike's mini detail boot camp at Detail fest this morning. got lucky and was able to get first seat in the front. will be going to the boot camp weekend in September.
This car belongs to Kristin aka Steedafocusgirl and she attended one of my detailing classes here at autogeek where she learned to machine polish paint to remove swirls and create a true show car shine.

After the class I took these photos of her car as it looked in the parking lot in 2010
This photo shows just how swirled-out the paint was at that time...
Swirl Free Show Car Finish
And here it is now after Kristin took the what she learned at our class and used to create a swirl free finish with a deep, wet shine.
I inspected her car very closely while it was here for Detail Fest and just want to commend Kristin for doing a great job on her car.
Kristin and I were in that 101 class together a few years ago. I was blown away by how her Merkur looked on Saturday. Well done Kristin and nice pink brake calipers!
Thanks So Much Ed and Mike! It means alot comming from you Mike!
Btw I did my first PAID detail job this weekend. I did a slight correction on my moms 02 Mustang. I usually do it for free for family but I finally got paid!! It was only $80.00 though plus some dinner! lol

I agree.
I walked around the car and looked very closely at the paint and it was dark, deep, clear and black and most of all....
Swirl-free!
The techniques Kristen used can be used by anyone to get show car results, if you haven't already, get signed-up for the next class and easily get results like Kristen...
